In the graph, the horizontal axis represents the number of adult tickets sold

And the vertical axis represents the corresponding number of student tickets sold.

The vertical intercept, as we are indicated is at (0,200)

That point is at 0 in the horizontal axis and at 200 on the vertical axis, comparing with what each axis represents:

(0,200) represents that when 0 adult tickets are sold, 200 student tickets are sold.

Answer:

it tells us that if no adult tickets were sold, 200 student tickets were sold
